Not much to say about me. I'm here 'cause I like writing fanfiction. I'm a living organism. I love anime, cartoons of the non-anime variety, and books. Music inspires my writing... A lot. I write with friends on occasion, though it's usually my partner in crime, Will Turner (not real name, obviously).
The penname comes from the fact that I just can't seem to stop stealing significant others from other people. Not. Will and I just weren't creative enough at Girl Scout Camp that one summer... And yes, that means that I am a girl. And don't you forget it.
I do author's notes a lot at the end of a chapter/story because I can't explain things inside said stories without sounding entirely awkward. If you don't like them, skip them. They're honestly quite harmless.
Please... criticize contructively. I could use it. Don't cuss me out. I don't like it when people do that. If you don't like my stuff, don't read it, plain and simple. I couldn't care less if you hate the stuff I write. If you think you can do SO much better, by all means, go ahead and write. Don't waste your time writing pointless flames for others' work.
I do tend to be a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my writing, so I'm posting the stuff I've written lately (though I've been writing fanfiction since 7th grade), and going back to edit my old stuff.
Enjoy my stories if you will. That makes me happy.

Happiness! I found a new anime I like! Gakuen (uhhh... did I spell that right?) Alice rocks! I saw a random amv on YouTube, and I thought it looked interesting, so I watched the first five episodes today, and I loved it! I don't think it's been dubbed (or even licensed) but if anyone sees anything about dub licensing for it, I want to know!
Also, PLEASE REVIEW MY STORIES! I want to know what I need to work on and what people like, (or even that they're just reading!) and it makes me nervous to see (and I kid you not because this happened to me) a story with 200 hits and NO REVIEWS. Please just take two seconds to type, "I read this." I'd love it!

I forgot to add something to the "about me", so I'll just add it in this little section.
I love to imitate things people say and do. My friend taught me how to say, "My socks are pink" in Japanese, and she said I had good pronounciation. My mom and dad have me imitate German phrases, and I take Spanish. I can put on accents, too. My best are German and Latvian.
Enough with the randomness.

I really should get a blog, but I don't want to. Too lazy. Anyway, I've been deleting old posts that no longer apply, just so you all know.

An update! Wow! Okay, I need to briefly explain something because I'm getting more and more ideas for it. It's part of a Royai concept I wrote a while ago, and, like I said, the ideas are flowing like something else I happened to have a few days ago... but that's beside the point here. What I'd like to explain is the KAIVERSE or, if I need to use it, the MAXVERSE. The KAIVERSE is a string of Royai stuff (Full Metal Alchemist rocks!) that I wrote. The first story I wrote for it was the one about Riza's pregnancy and Kai's birth. "How to Break the News" was the title, and the second chapter was "Baby Makes Three".
The KAIVERSE and MAXVERSE have the same background: There are many manga concepts, so things may be labeled as manga spoilers, and may have faux-memories of things that have not happened yet (and probably won't since I'm not Hiromu Arakawa-sensei, nor do I know what will happen next for any other reason). Somehow, the homuculi were defeated. Nobody went over to the other side of the Gate. Ed and Winry are happily married, as are Riza and Roy. We know about Kai already, but Max... Max is Ed and Winry's son. There we are. Long explanation for a simple thing.
AND ONE THING MORE! (As of one day and three exams later, along with some much-needed sanity.) The thing that happened to Havoc in volume 10? It didn't happen. At least, not yet. If something happens to change his current situation, then it will have happened. Go read the manga if you don't know what I'm talking about.

Hey, Royai fans! Join in on the fun of the forum "Royai: Unutterable Feelings" in the ff.net FMA forums! There's only three of us so far who have put up postings, and it'd be cool to get a few more in there. You know you want to!

Wow. A ton has happened in the past 8 months, and it's just been really fast-paced and crazy. I've been working on some new Royai stuff: a series of long drabbles/short oneshots connected to the central theme of "Second Chances". As of this post, I'm up to 7.5 written, with 11 total ideas. so, 3.5 more to go, and I'm hoping to come up with some more. It'd be really nice to make it to 20. Once I get it going, I'd probably update twice or three times per week, but I don't know. Just in case anybody cares.
Random Quotes I happen to like:
My friend -we'll call him KK- insulting me: You're about as smart as a stump that's been rolled to the bottom of the sea and has been rotting there for twenty thousand years. In fact, all life that attempted to grow on it died.

Random Internet quote: Love is... giving someone the chance to destroy you, and trusting them not to.
One of my favorite Riza (FMA) avatars: I believe "die, bitch," conveys my feelings accurately.

Me: My stupidity came back to be useful! (long story short: we had to do titrations in chemistry and I kept missing the equivalence point, and one of my friends likened it to his missing the bus)
My religion teacher (as he's spinning the Catholic liturgical calendar around): You could get high off this!
Robin Williams (As Teddy Roosevelt in "Night At the Musuem"): I'm made out of wax, Larry. What are you made out of?
